ABOUT
FI Gesundheits- und Sportverein is a youth-focused non-governmental organization established in Klagenfurt, Austria, in 2022 by sports professionals committed to promoting healthy lifestyles and social inclusion through sport. Our members, primarily students and graduates of the Faculty of Sports Sciences, work voluntarily to encourage young people to embrace physical activity as a pathway to improved mental well-being, physical health, and active participation in society. Since its foundation, the organization has implemented local workshops, sports activities, awareness campaigns, and community initiatives in cooperation with sports clubs and local stakeholders across Klagenfurt and the State of Carinthia.
